Caretaker
I wake up,
Feed your cat,
And tell myself that I'm okay where I'm at
And I take great care keeping this roof pitched
But it's lonely out here,
I can't make any music
Understand I can no longer take care
This is the last night in the house I was born in
Could you give me a ride to the train in the morning?
I've got a real nice place on a real nice block
With a garden outside,
You should see it sometime
But don't, don't worry about
This is the last night in the house I was born in
Don't tell me that I have forgotten who I am
I'm gonna write, write,
Write until it comes out wrong
And then I'll hang up my hands on the hook when I'm done
And I know that you always wanted me to
And I tell myself the things you said
You said just because you had to
Feed your cat,
And tell myself that I'm okay where I'm at
And I take great care keeping this roof pitched
But it's lonely out here,
I can't make any music
Understand I can no longer take care
This is the last night in the house I was born in
Could you give me a ride to the train in the morning?
I've got a real nice place on a real nice block
With a garden outside,
You should see it sometime
But don't, don't worry about
This is the last night in the house I was born in
Don't tell me that I have forgotten who I am
I'm gonna write, write,
Write until it comes out wrong
And then I'll hang up my hands on the hook when I'm done
And I know that you always wanted me to
And I tell myself the things you said
You said just because you had to
